I wish producers would have rethought the edit this season.
I didn't know who Danielle or Carolyn was before this show. This season's edit had me cringing at Danielle and rooting hard for Carolyn. I saw Carolyn as smart, loyal, and authentic. I saw Danielle as the exact opposite. I feel so unsatisfied with tonight's banishment. It feels like an inept mean girl won the war.
This feels super unfair. But also this game is kind of unfair by nature. This genuinely makes me want to stop watching because this is suppose to be a fun escape. Now, It feels icky.
Extra thoughts:
- I don't think Danielle is the "worst traitor ever." I think that's hyperbole talk to explain her weird acting and shield choices.
- Danielle has certainly had a lot of misses and it feels like the faithfuls keep missing her out of sheer luck or her people skills are just masking her behavior.
- Danielle's planted seeds this episode did not get Carolyn out. Carolyn got herself out tonight.
- The Forrest Gump comment tonight was gross and probably the worst thing said at any round table I can remember.
- Carolyn did fumble at the last second in the challenge. It just sucks because we've seen Danielle do that with no consequence...
